It's Thursday, May 8th.
I'm Jane Koston, and this is What A Day, the show that is taking a stand.
A stand against the use of the term raw-dogging in contexts like this one,
in which a CBS News guest describes how Cardinals are spending their time during the papal conclave.
One thing we know they're not doing is checking Instagram
because their devices have all been confiscated.
I believe the kids call it raw-dogging it
if you're going to go through a long period of time with no electronic device.
Look, this is a family podcast, so we are not getting into what the term raw dogging actually means.
But let me be clear,
we are not using it to discuss whether or not Catholic cardinals can use their phones during the conclave.
On today's show, the Federal Reserve keeps interest rates steady over tariff uncertainty,
and India and Pakistan escalate their decades-long tensions.
Great.
But let's start with everyone's favorite group of normal, down-to-earth, hard-working Americans.
Congress!
Over the past few months, you might have been thinking to yourself, hey,
the President of the United States is running roughshod over the rights of millions of Americans.
The judiciary has been acting to slow him down-ish.
But isn't there this other branch of government that could be doing something?
